    The church at a crossroads....

    Of course you may! If they were not saved, I would lead them to the Lord. If they already knew the Lord and have been saved, I then share with them that they are new creatures and are no longer in the flesh, and owe the old man NOTHING. I would tell them that they can walk free of their...

    Civil War Wednesday?

    I think pool noodles should be declared the weapon of choice in all civil wars. ☺️

    Civil War Wednesday?

    In the first century, entire families were fed to wild beasts for entertainment. They did not resist. Yet, they walked in a place of freedom others simply knew nothing about. Were they just weak willed or were they following their Lord? Gids

    Civil War Wednesday?

    Actually, the choice is to obey God and trust Him , or take matters into our own hands and sow to the wind. Are we ready for the whirlwind? The wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God. Do we believe that or not?

    Civil War Wednesday?

    Grocery stores would be empty, looting rampant, work would cease, gas stations out of gas, churches closed, people killed on both sides, children hungry and living in fear. Lawlessness would take over both sides and you think it would not be such a bad thing? Oh, and add in that many emergency...

    So, an Christian who as become addicted to painkillers comes to you desperate for an answer that will deliver him from his bondage to sin. What do you tell Him? Gids

    A testimony of God's power to deliver us from the power of darkness....

    My Miraculous Visitation I was saved by a true miracle on Christmas Eve, 1970. Having been a porn addict since I was an early teen, and then finally saved 21, I had high hopes that my addiction would be a thing of the past. I was wrong. For the next 3 and a half decades, I was the poster boy...

    The church at a crossroads....

    You lay a trap, methinks. . Look to Jesus and His promises and ask Him if He can save you you to the uttermost and deliver you from the power of darkness. I will however post my testimony as to what God has done for me in a new thread. You are welcome to read it if you like. That might...

    The church at a crossroads....

    It is at this point so many have lost touch with the depth of the power of sin. Multitudes of people, and yes, even children of God, find that they are addicted to sins big and small. And the answer the church offers is that either a) you are not trying hard enough or b) you are not saved at...

    The church at a crossroads....

    I am no better than any here, nor more spiritual. But with that said, I would be remiss if I did not testify that as I have trusted Him to keep me from falling, standing fast in the faith that the old "me" is no longer who I am, He has been faithful to keep that which I have committed unto Him...

    The church at a crossroads....

    Two people get addicted to drugs. One has no desire to stop, and encourages others into the same addiction. The other battles and battles, hating the sin that has grabbed him, longing for someone to deliver him from the power of the drug that will not let him go. One is willful, with no...

    And therein lies the great gamble, that what scripture plainly tells us somehow does not mean that at all. I pray none make that bet. Gids

    The church at a crossroads....

    I pray readers do not see my posts as exhorting saints to try harder or to be better Christians. Just the opposite. I am exhorting any who will listen to take God's promises to heart, and if they are not coming to pass in our lives, to cry out to their Heavenly Father to lift us up to the...

    The church at a crossroads....

    This is the question before us. Can Jesus keep us from sinning? Not us keep ourselves from sinning. Can Jesus keep us from it? I sincerely and humbly ask you. Re-read the promises I listed before you answer. Yes, thank God, IF we sin, we can ask forgiveness, but can we be kept from falling...

    The church at a crossroads....

    Brother, God has promised... ... that our shield of faith will quench all the fiery arrows of the enemy. ... that He would not allow us to be tempted above our ability to withstand it. .... that He would make a way of escape in each and every temptation. ... that sin shall not have...

    The church at a crossroads....

    Brother, I mean not to offend. However, what you are saying here is the very attitude Laodecia was corrected for. Is it not saying: "Not us, Lord. We are your children. There is no way we could be seen in such a light! Yes, we are still found willfully sinning. Yes, we lack evidence of your...

    The church at a crossroads....

    If one does not have the Spirit of God, they are not part of the church. Yet the Laodecians were most definitely addressed as His children. Lukewarmness was exemplified by the attitude that they had need of nothing, they were quite satisfied to be forgiven with no desire at all to walk pleasing...
